A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO pUBLIC SCHOOL LAND TRANSFER.
BE
IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION
1. The legislature finds that before statehood,
counties within the territory governed their respective public education systems.
Among other matters of statewide concern,
Act 97, Session Laws of Hawaii 1965 (Act 97), vested in the State responsibility
for the planning, construction, improvement, and maintenance of public school grounds
and facilities. Prior to Act 97, counties
issued bonds to plan, construct, improve, and maintain public school facilities
and grounds.
Act
154, Session Laws of Hawaii 2003, conveyed to the State the fee simple title to
certain county of Hawaii lands used by the department of education. Act 206, Session Laws of Hawaii 2017 (Act 206),
directed the conveyance, to the department of land and natural resources, of the
fee simple title to certain county of Honolulu lands used by the department of education.
Act 279, Session Laws of Hawaii 2019, amended
Act 206 by designating the transferee as the department of education, instead of
the department of land and natural resources. Act 210, Session Laws of Hawaii 2018, directed
the conveyance, to the department of education, of the fee simple title to additional
city and county of Honolulu lands used by the department of education.
The
legislature further finds that the department of education has invested
significant public funds on maintenance and capital improvement projects for
new school facilities. The expenditure
of these funds was done without regard to the underlying fee ownership of the real
property. Act 155, Session Laws of
Hawaii 2013 (Act 155), authorized the department of education to develop its assets
to create twenty-first century schools.
Act 155 also authorized the department of education to explore different
mechanisms to redevelop its assets, including revenue generation to support
investments in twenty-first century schools.
The
legislature also finds that split ownership of the land under existing schools
creates problems for redevelopment, especially when private investment is
involved. This has resulted in delays in
the permitting and delivery of vital capital improvements throughout the public
school system.
The
legislature also finds that, to provide the department of education with
flexibility to redevelop, reposition, and improve its assets in a timely and
efficient manner, sole ownership of all land under existing public schools
should be consolidated and held by the department of education.
The
purpose of this Act is to:
(1) Convey to the department of education fee simple
title to the lands used by the department of education for public schools and offices
that are currently owned by the counties of Kauai and Maui, the State, and the department
of land and natural resources;
(2) Require legislative approval prior to the sale
or gift of lands to which the department of education holds title; and
(3) Appropriate the sum of $
to effectuate the transfer of the properties identified herein and for the department
of education to effectively manage real property owned by the department of education.
SECTION
2. (a) Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary,
the fee simple interest to the parcels of land set forth by this section, below,
together with the existing improvements thereon, but not including submerged
land, accreted land, or any land makai of the legal shoreline (collectively, the
properties), shall be conveyed by their respective owner or owners to the department
of education as grantee, as is, where is. The department of education shall accept the
properties in their existing condition.
All claims and liabilities against the grantors, if any, that the
department of education has, may have had, or may have in the future, regarding
any injury, loss, cost, damage, or liability, including reasonable attorney's
fees, concerning the physical, environmental, soil, economic, and legal conditions
of the properties, shall be released, waived, and extinguished.
(b)
The respective owner or owners of the properties
shall prepare, execute, and record, in the land court or bureau of conveyances,
as appropriate, a quitclaim deed to convey each of the properties together with
all existing improvements. Work to
initiate the conveyance of the properties shall commence no later than December
31, 2022.
(c)
As these are conveyances in which the county
and the State and its agencies are the only parties, the tax imposed by section
247-1, Hawaii Revised Statutes, shall not apply.
(d)
Effective on the date of transfer, every
reference to the titleholder of the properties shall be construed as a
reference to the department of education.
